Please tell me how YC works. You know how it works and the problems that YC has to deal with. Tell me What a driver has to do to deliver a pizza. Tell me how to sync clay paky lights to one another. Tell me what you need to make them look good at show. Tell me how the red light sensors actually work. I have more common sense and smarts than you think my friend. Problem is I think for myself not with the masses.

You still have no idea!

HAS to be a troll. No way this guy can be real.

I would say 70% of the time the driver has to wait for customer to close tab or just walk out of bar. One user even said so himself had to get my group out of the bar. Had to wait on chick to get out of bathroom. Yet this is in your eyes YC fault because by that patron making that driver wait, it caused that the next person to have to wait longer.

If it happens 70% of the time you should let the next person know it will be up to 25-30 minutes instead of 15 minutes, its really not that hard.

I find myself starting to feel bad for him because he's so stupid but then I think there's no way anyone can be that stupid. I'm starting to question my own existence at this point.

Really because we can see the foresee the future.

He's either trolling or is clinically retarded. Those are our only two options at this point.

Here's an idea for you, instead of always saying its going to take 15 minutes when there is no chance in hell that it will actually take 15 minutes, give a realistic time frame! I have learned one thing being in the service world and that's "DO what you say you're going to do!" It's that simple! Instead, YC gives some BS number that they know they can't make and then blames it on the customer that they aren't there waiting when they finally arrive, although YC missed their time frame that THEY SAID THEY WOULD MAKE! Do a better job of estimating when you will actually be there to pick someone up, that is what is so nice about the UBER app and being able to track the car. With technology this is very easy to do. Google Maps factors traffic into your commute time and it is very accurate. Next, you obviously need to factor in the wait time for picking up each customer. If you are seeing that it averages 15 minutes just to get people into your car then that needs to be factored into your ETA. This is really elementary stuff, not something that people should have to tell you. If you tell someone you are going to be there at a certain time and you are 20+ minutes late then you have grossly mismanaged your estimate. This is your fault and your fault alone. The fact that people are told a number and cabs show up 1+ hours late shows just how awful of a job YC does at giving estimates. If you realize that it is a peak time then you must factor all of this in your estimate! I have absolutely no sympathy for you or any other YC companies. My only hope is that the corruption will not win!
